First Presbyterian Day School strive to give each child the nurturing and guidance needed in these formative years.
We believe that we should accept children at their own particular level of growth and maturity and then carefully guide and cultivate their mental, physical, emotional, social and spiritual development through the use of age appropriate activities and projects carried out in a healthy, loving atmosphere.
We believe that by creating a warm and loving atmosphere, children will feel special and secure and in turn will feel free to explore the world around them.
